Is this the moment when we officially become a nation of victims?
You guys make it sound like nothing bad could ever happen to you.
My point is not to deny that people are going through some difficult times, but to make a statement about how we face up to these difficult times. The days of finding one job that you keep for most of your life, that gives you generous benefits, and that provides you with retirement income, those days are gone. Maybe that sucks, but life sucks sometimes.
The reason that I read this board is because it's full of people who realize that our economy is undergoing some deep and fundamental changes and, if you want to make it, you're going to have to learn to hustle. Those people looking for the government to come and rescue them, they're already lost.
